<P>Absolute horrible NBN service. The technicians and the people at NBN prefers to run test while sitting on a computer and say the test passed so the connection is good to go. However, the appointment notes clearly says that the NTD box has problems and needs to be checked on which would require a technician to come in the house and check it out. But I am guessing they are too lazy. This is the second time that has happened with the NBN appointment. We had 6 NBN and Telstra technician appointment combined so far and no one seems to solve the problem. They just want to blame each other and I as a consumer has to suffer. This is absolutely ridiculous. I called Telstra more than 20 times now and I have to explain the same situation over an over again and everyone gives a different answer but none are qualified to actually give a proper resolution. If the technician can't help nor the people over the phone. Where am I supposed to go? At this point might as well cancel the order and move on to other providers.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>THE PROBLEM: WAN light not lighting. And I'm on NBN HFC connection. The technician said "it maybe due to data not flowing through from the NBN box to the Telstra modem. And yes the modem has been replaced several times.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Does anyone here actually know what the problem is and how it can be resolved?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>At this point I'm basically giving up.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks!</P>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 10:17:13 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856332#M9079220xxx2020-02-26T10:17:13ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856345#M90794
<P>It could either be the NBN NTD or the incoming connection from the street to the NBN NTD if the Telstra modem has been eliminated as the problem. Both of which require an NBN Co technician to fix.&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Have you tried plugging a computer directly in to the NBN NTD? If it doesn't connect to the internet then the problem lies on the NBN side of the equation.&nbsp;</P>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 11:36:21 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856345#M90794Jupiter2020-02-26T11:36:21ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856370#M90797
<P>The NBN people already ran the test and say its passed so unlikely it would be the problem from the street. I’m guessing its the NTD box or even the d1 port of the box.</P><P>I’ve tried plugging in my computer to the NTD box through PPPOE connection but I’m unable to do it due to not having username and password.&nbsp;<BR />i called them and they said wait for appointment&nbsp;</P><P>The people over at NBN aren’t ready to accept that its a fault in their end which is really frustrating&nbsp;</P>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 21:15:24 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856370#M9079720xxx2020-02-26T21:15:24ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856382#M90802
<P>There is no username or password required on an FTTP connection (it's a DHCP connection, not PPPoE).</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>NBN Co may have even connected you to one of the other D port as well, instead of D1.</P>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 22:37:37 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856382#M90802Jupiter2020-02-26T22:37:37ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856470#M90813

Has your NBN order completed? You can call 1800 834 273 and say check order and they can confirm if the order has completed. If the order has completed another fault will need to be raised.Thu, 27 Feb 2020 08:07:05 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856477#M90816343GuiltySpark2020-02-27T08:07:05ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856479#M90817

That will be why its not working, if the NBN service isn't provisioned there will be no data connection.Thu, 27 Feb 2020 11:21:12 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856513#M90823343GuiltySpark2020-02-27T11:21:12ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856549#M90832

<P>Plugging a laptop in to the HFC NTD is the same as for FTTP, it's a DHCP and not a PPPoE connection.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>If you can't get a connection that way, then it is definitely going to need an NBN Co visit to figure out what is going wrong.</P>Thu, 27 Feb 2020 22:15:48 GMThttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/856555#M90834Jupiter2020-02-27T22:15:48ZRe: WAN light not showing + absolutely crap service from NBN and Telstrahttps://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/home-broadband/wan-light-not-showing-absolutely-crap-service-from-nbn-and/m-p/857069#M90917
<P>I’ve made a complaint. And now due to that they have run troubleshooting and found some internal problems with the IT systems (from what they said). I’m still waiting on a reply from them.
